I tried to troff the slides posted here, and did not succeed. I did not attempt to solve the problem (I don't have the time). Could someone archive the slides in Postscript format, as was done with the Perl Reference Guide?

[Sorry to take so long to answer; my news feed just came back after a week-long hiatus.] I've heard that some of the vintage AT&T troffs can't handle some of the motion commands; apparently I've inadvertently used a common but not ubiquitous addition to troff. Sorry about that. Included in the distribution were three macro headers: one for troff, one for nroff, and one for pure ASCII. If the first doesn't work for you, try one of the others. The ASCII one should be unadulterated text. The troff is just fluff; the others should have other the information in them. I don't have postscript. --tom -- Tom Christiansen {uunet,uiucdcs,sun}!convex!tchrist Convex Computer Corporation tchrist@convex.COM "EMACS belongs in <sys/errno.h>: Editor too big!"
